The Congo Basin Program (CBP) was a large-scale public-private partnership aiming to increase the responsible production and trade of tropical timber. The CBP assisted concession holders in the process to FSC certification and better market position through co-funding of a number of relevant services, such as pre-audits, HCV assessments or social studies.

OUR ROLE

Form international has run the program secretary, from screening of the partner-companies and selection of service providers, to the actual payment of subsidies and reporting to IDH. In the final year, 2015, a learning event has been organized, during which the lessons learned have been shared with stakeholders.
